Summary

Shettler School is an elementary school in Muskegon, Michigan, serving 303 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Fruitport Community Schools district, which is ranked 226 out of 613 districts in the state.

Shettler School consistently outperforms the district and state averages in academic proficiency, particularly in Math, where over 50% of 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders were proficient in the 2024-2025 school year. The school's performance is also strong in Science and Social Studies, with 57.1% and 39.3% of 5th graders proficient, respectively. Shettler School's low-income and White student populations have shown especially impressive results, with the school ranking 44th and 323rd out of over 1,300 Michigan elementary schools in those categories.

While Shettler School outperforms nearby Edgewood Elementary School and Beach Elementary School, it lags behind Churchill Elementary School in the Mona Shores Public School District in several academic areas. However, Shettler School's strong performance is particularly impressive given its high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, which suggests the school's effective teaching and support strategies.
